For twelve years, Cole has suffered the unspeakable darkness of abuse from his parents. And every night, a sinister whispering haunts him from the crawlspace above his bedroom.

And Cole must lead the fight before the sun sets on a final, bloody Halloween. Scroll up and one-click to start reading this young adult supernatural horror! *Previously published as Halloween Terror
